Set these per environment. See Connect an integration.

Setup

  1. Enable the API: Sign in to Redis Cloud (https://cloud.redis.io) as an account owner and go to Access Management → API Keys. Free accounts can sign up and create an Essentials subscription to test with. Enable the API if prompted.
  2. Copy the account key: The account key identifies your account and is shown on the API Keys page. Add it to your .env as REDIS_CLOUD_API_KEY.
  3. Create a user secret key: On the same page, add a new API user key. The secret is shown only once - copy it and add it as REDIS_CLOUD_SECRET_KEY.
  4. Verify access: Run List Subscriptions (Pro) or List Essentials Subscriptions (fixed plans).

​
Provider notes

  • Requests authenticate with two headers: x-api-key (account key) and x-api-secret-key (user secret key) - both env vars are required
  • Pro and Essentials subscriptions live under different paths: /v1/subscriptions vs /v1/fixed/subscriptions
  • The API is rate limited to 400 requests per minute per account key

Call a read tool such as redis-cloud__list_subscriptions with arguments for your account. Confirm that the result comes from the intended account or workspace before enabling write tools.
